The Turkish Military says it has captured the sister of abu bakr al baghdadi, leader of the Extremist Group the so called Islamic State, who died in an american raid in syria a week ago. Turkish Officials Say they are interrogating her along with her husband and daughter in law, detained with her. With me is our News Reporter gareth barlow. He is part of our team. What can you tell us . This is a lady by the name of rasmiya awad, and she was detained after a raid on monday near the town of azaz, near the city of aleppo in northern syria. Territory controlled by turkey. She was a p pa re ntly controlled by turkey. She was apparently living in a trailer and was detained alongside several family members. Now, turkey are saying they are hopeful she will give them lots of intelligence. What are others saying about that . The quote from turkey is they hope she will offer a trove of intelligence although maybe people are a bit more sceptical. It is unlikely she will know about key military strategy or insurgents vanity but she might know more about the general workings of the group, how embers of Islamic State families are smuggled across iraqi or syria, for example, up towards those regions near the turkish border. Maybe her al baghdadi was in contact within recent months or weeks, and the status of other family members or key Islamic State members. All of this information will build into that mosaic of understanding about the remnants of Islamic State. And the remnants of Islamic State. And the fact that turkey have got this find, as it were, this key player, what does it mean for them . They have been criticised for the recent campaign into northern syria, the campaign into northern syria, the campaign against the kurds that they launch last month. They will be keen to show they are in intelligence and military player. They now control this territory and they have produced this person, this key figure of Islamic State. So it will bea figure of Islamic State. So it will be a vitaljustification for their operations, and one they will hope to build on. Thank you very much indeed. That is the very latest, and you can have a look at our website for more information. An investigation based on the phone of a 17 year old teenager who killed herself has revealed the shocking scale of self harm and suicide material being shared across networks of private Instagram Accounts. Weve been able to see inside the mobile of the norwegian teen who live posted her suicide on instagram. New analysis by a team of norwegian journalists has revealed that her account was linked to another 1,000 accounts posting similar dangerous content, around half of them in english. At least another 14 girls in the same Instagram Network have also taken their own lives. Catrin nye has this special report. I used to say that she she was my heart. It really took my heart with her when she died. Heidis daughter killed herself in 2017. A month before her 18th birthday. But it wasnt until earlier this year that heidi discovered she had posted her suicide on instagram. Andrines mobile phone had been unopened since her death. When heidi got into it, she found a secret locked Instagram Account where andrine had documented her struggles with Mental Health problems, self harming, and finally her suicide. The hardest thing was that she had documented her last days, her last hours. It was almost like she was streaming her death. So this is our investigation room. Heidi learned about the account from norwegian journalists investigating suicide and self harm communities on instagram. She let the investigation tea m instagram. She let the Investigation Team use the phone to go through andrines followers, and in turn their followers. They found connections to 1000 locked secret accou nts connections to 1000 locked secret a ccou nts a cross connections to 1000 locked secret accounts across 20 countries, all posting similar often disturbing content. Among them at least 1a other suicides in norway alone. Journalist Annemarte Moland says these sort of networks reward harmful behaviour. The average age is 19. They are often in and out of hospitals. Theres lots of support, lots of attention. And what were the problems you saw . I very quickly discovered that, when you post suicidal stuff, or self harm, you get more attention. As time has passed, when i have seen what is posted, and how active she was on that instagram community, i realised that instagram community, i realised that instagram community, i realised that instagram basically took my daughters life. Thats what i feel. Instagram has banned all graphic images of self harm and content that promotes suicide, but some posts are missed. Some users now post more a bstra ct missed. Some users now post more abstract images to represent things like suicide attempts. We want people to be able to come to instagram to express themselves, but we are deeply committed to making sure that also our responsibility is keeping people who come to instagram safe, not seeing what could be harmful material. Heidi now wishes she had talked to andrine more about her instagram life. To another mother i would say dont make the same mistake, talk to your daughter. Talk about it. Lets brief you on some of the other stories making the news the Trump Administration has formally notified the United Nations that it intends to withdraw the us from the paris Climate Change agreement. It is the first formal step in a process that will take a year to effect. The Paris Agreement commits nearly 200 nations to reducing greenhouse emissions. It was signed by barack 0bama four years ago. Chinas president has said he has a high degree of trust in hong kongs leader. The two have been meeting in shanghai. There were reports that beijing planned to replace carrie lam after months of Anti Government protests. In a statement on chinas state news agency, xinhua, president xi xinping said ending violence and restoring order is still the most important task. Internet access in the iraqi capital, baghdad, is reported to have been cut off. The move follows a day of renewed Anti Government protests in which at least five iraqis were reported killed, including a member of the security forces. There was a time when the rise and rise of fast fashion seemed relentless. Pioneers like the british firm primark seemed to have hit on a winning formula, with a rapidly revolving stock of super cheap clothes. But that could be changing as environmental and ethical concerns affect the entire sector. Jane foley from rabobank joins me now. Lovely to see you. So primark will reveal its latest earnings today, but in the meantime, in terms of its reputation, a lot of peoples opinions have changed about where they shop and why. Thats right, theres an awful lot of influences about sustainability. An disposable fashion doesnt really ring true with that message. I think for primark they are coming up against different consumer choices, but of course, they do have in their sort of strength price. And this is a difficult thing, particularly for young people. They are aware of the sustainability arguments, but on the other hand, they cant necessarily afford more expensive, better quality clothing. So i think this is the decision that many people do have to make. It is really tricky, but also it is notjust the have to make. It is really tricky, but also it is not just the fact have to make. It is really tricky, but also it is notjust the fact it is so cheap. It is also the fact that it is so cheap. It is also the fact thatitis is so cheap. It is also the fact that it is so easy to throw away. And a lot of these clothes, what they are made from now, things like synthetic materials, are really damaging to the environment, when a lot of these clothes are just burnt, they are incinerated, arent they . Thats right, and we have even heard recently that watching them in the washing machine can release damaging chemicals, or particles, rather, that we cant see, but that eventually will end up in the ocean. And also, just to make a cotton t shirt and a cotton pair of genes ta kes a t shirt and a cotton pair of genes takes a huge amount of water. Jeans. We are given the message that actually the less clothes we have, the better. But again, for many people, it is very tempting to want to have the latest fashion item and to have the latest fashion item and to have the latest fashion item and to have it at the lowest price. Absolutely, and not to be seen in it again, necessarily. Thank you for some of your comments on this. We are asking if you shop ethically for clothes or if the pricetag is really what lewis due to various retailers. We will look at your comments later. Tens of thousands of people in chile have gathered in the capital, santiago, under the slogan, this is not over. The so called super monday protest kicked off a third week of Anti Government protests triggered by the high cost of living and the austerity policies of president pinera. Demonstrators want him to resign and the constitution reformed. Last week chiles president , sebastian pinera, cancelled two Major International summits to be held in the country due to the ongoing protests. His government also faces allegations of excessive use of force against protesters. In an exlusive interview, mr pinera spoke to our south america correspondent katy watson. He said he would guarantee an investigation into any allegations of violence. First of all, we have to recover public order and protect the safety of our cities. The second thing we did was to put in place a very Strong Social agenda. That is taking ca re of Strong Social agenda. That is taking care of many of the demands and requests care of many of the demands and req u ests of care of many of the demands and requests of the people. So we are listening, and we are reacting. But of course, people have the right to protest, and we recognise that, and we protect that right, because thats part of our democracy. There is widespread condemnation of your forces, not just the is widespread condemnation of your forces, notjust the army, but the police, of using Excessive Force on peaceful protesters. The un is currently in the country. How can you, as a leader, that there and that that happen . Because there are people who are scared, seeing the police on the street. I can guarantee you that for me, and for my government, the commitment with human rights is the most high and most strong commitment i can have. And thats why we took all the precautions. 0f and thats why we took all the precautions. Of course, there are many alleged complaints about excessive use of force, or even crimes. If that took place, i can guarantee you that will be investigated by our prosecutorial system, and it will bejudged by our judicial system. There will be no impunity. Stay with us on bbc news. Still to come well have the latest on the winner of the melbourne cup, plus a full round up of sport in our tuesday briefing. The israeli Prime Minister, yitzhak rabin, the architect of the middle east peace process, has been assassinated. A 27 year old jewish man has been arrested, and an extremistjewish organisation has claimed responsibility for the killing. At polling booths throughout the country, they voted on a historic day for australia. As the results came in, it was clear. The monarchy would survive. Of the american hostages, there was no sign. They are being held somewhere inside the compound, and student leaders have threatened that should the americans attempt rescue, they will all die. This mission has surpassed all expectations. Voyageri is now the most distant man made object anywhere in the universe, and itjust seems to keep on going. Tonight, we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms, or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals. You are watching the briefing. Our main headline turkey says it has captured the older sister of abu bakr al baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State group, who died in a us raid in syria last month. She was detained in a turkish controlled area of northern syria. Spain goes to the polls this weekend for its second general election of the year. In barcelona on monday, as politicians took part in a televised debate, demonstrators burnt images of spains king who was visiting the regions capital. Alice cairns has more details as they burned posters of his image, the demonstrators chanted, catalonia has no king. The separatist protesters unafraid to make their views known or heard. Translation i live in a republic, not a monarchy. I dont agree with a foreign king coming to barcelona, even less now that it is us, the catalans, that are suffering. Inside the venue, king felipe called on cata la ns to the venue, king felipe called on catalans to put aside violence and seek a new reality. Translation a reality in which there can be no place for violence, intolerance, and a disregard for the rights and freedoms of others. Spain has become increasingly divided, especially after catalonias thwarted independence attempt in 2017. And this weekend the country will hold its second general election of the year, its fourth in four years. On monday night, the candidates vying to become Prime Minister clashed over how to handle catalonias independence drive. The leader of the far right bloc party labelling the desire to break away asa labelling the desire to break away as a permanent coup detat. Whether you call it a coup detat or independence campaign, the question ofa independence campaign, the question of a catalonias future continues to fuel passions and divide spain. Alice cairns, bbc news. Within in the past hour australias most prestigious horse race, the melbourne cup, has been won by vow and declare. The famous race is a Cultural Institution and the winner becomes an instant household name in australia. But this years running of the race has been overshadowed by an animal abuse scandal. Lets get more from abc grandstand sportscaster corbin middlemas, who was watching the race at the flemington racecourse. Great to have you on the programme. Just tell us more about the winner, the australian horse, vow and declare. A very popular winner, especially in these parts, vow and declare one of only two australian bred horses in the race. That was quite significant when the field was named on saturday night and you made your way through the horses in the race and a lot of them had three letter cou ntry race and a lot of them had three letter country codes alongside them to indicate whether they had come from germany or france or somewhere in the uk, a number of my resources, with the 0brien family heavily involved. And all the way down the end of the saddle cloth, it is a handicap race at the melbourne cup, arguably the best handicap recently well, right down the bottom at 23 and 2a were the only two local horses in the race and one of them goes on to win, vow and declare full a big win for the locals, with the danny 0brien trainer. Vow and declare winning for australian breeders. And to what extent is this overshadowed by concerns about animal abuse, how the horses are treated . Even in our crosses and the coverage we have given it during the day and abc grandstand, it is part ofa day and abc grandstand, it is part of a broader organisation like the bbc, when were to local radio programmes there are questions about cruelty to animals in a way that we havent had in the past. People, think, are more aware of it. Perhaps not so much at the track. If you like a lot of racing goers and a lot of sports fans in general get behind the Spring Racing carnival. And it is a beacon for the fashion industry and for celebrities to make their way out here. I think where it will really resonate and we wont know what impact this has had for 2h hours or so, is what is happening at workplaces around the country. This is billed as the race to stop the nation and there is a reason for that. Right across the country, in school yards, they socially stopped to ta ke school yards, they socially stopped to take on the race and have done ever since the race was first run. This is the 159th edition. A lot of sweeps go on. People who are necessarily racing fans or even sports fans, they will have some sort of party and a complicit interest in the race once a year. I think it is those people who might feel more of a disconnect and disenfranchise with the race than ever before. Really interesting. Thank for your time. And congratulations to vow and declare, the winner of this years melbourne cup. Now its time to get all the latest from the bbc sports centre. Hello, im Gavin Ramjaun and this is your tuesday sport briefing. We start with football news first, and former premier league side, cardiff city, face a three window transfer ban if they fail to pay french club, nantes, the first instalment of the 20 million fee for striker emiliano sala. The argentinian player died in a plane crash injanuary while travelling from france tojoin his new club. Cardiff will lodge an appeal against the decision in the next two weeks to the court of arbitration for sport, arguing they were not liable for any of the fee, because sala was not officially their player when he died. Al ahed beat the north korean side april 25 sports club to become the first lebanese side to win the Asian Football Confederation cup. The north korean team were reduced to ten men. Goalkeepr an tae song, was shown a straight red card for a rugby like tackle on al ahed striker ahmad zreik. The ghanian midfielder issah yakubu scored with a header not long afterfor the only goal of the match in malaysia. Captain Haytham Faour received the trophy, from Asian Football Confederation president Sheikh Salman bin ebrahim al khalifa. The winners of the world series, the washington nationals, have been to the white house, to be honoured by president donald trump. Only 18 of the 25 players attended the ceremony. Their visit comes after a dramatic game seven win over the Houston Astros last week for theirfirst world series franchise win. There are eight games in the Champions League on tuesday. Perhaps the pick of them Borussia Dortmund at home to inter milan. Its an important game, as both hope to qualify from group f. Five time champions barcelona currently top of the group on seven points. Inter milan won the reverse fixture in italy 2 0 two weeks ago. Elsewhere, defending champions liverpool could take a massive step towards qualification for the knockout stages, with a win against genk at anfield. They currently sit second in their group, behind napoli, but could end tuesday with a healthy lead over the third placed side. We have to create an incredible atmosphere again. We have to make life uncomfortable as possible for them. We have to make sure we get these three points because that is why we are doing all this stuff. And that only works if you are 100 focused on it. Thats everyone else. Displaying some sort of skill or trick can always get you noticed on social media. Sometimes youve just gotta keep it real and go back to basics. Just like inters lautaro martinez, whos keepy uppy skills are on point, in training for their big game in europe this week. Martinez has seven goals this season, which have kept his side flying high in serie a. Definitely one to watch this week. You can get all the latest sports news at our website thats bbc. Com sport. But from me, Gavin Ramjaun, and the rest of the sport team, thats your tuesday sport briefing. 0ur our thanks to gavin and the tiva that. All you keep illegal parties have stepped up their campaigns on social media in recent days. Little advertising platforms such as facebook has been the source of great controversy in the past four yea rs, great controversy in the past four years, with concerns about personal data falling into the wrong hands. Amol rajan reports. Election campaigns are ultimately a branch of the marketing industry. In the 21st century, that means theyve shifted online. This weekend saw a significant escalation of political ads in our facebook and other social media feeds, but tactics varied across the parties. Conservatives focused on brexit and targeted marginal constituencies such as colne valley with the message thatjust a few hundred votes could be decisive. Labour looked to policy beyond brexit, with an nhs add that linked to a guardian article. The lib dems tweaked their attack ad againstjeremy corbyn for different audiences. 0ne claimed he was a brexiteer at heart, another questioned his leadership credentials. But how exactly do digital marketers, political and otherwise, target us . The industry is seeing exponential growth. This british firm doesnt work for Political Parties, but helps brands reach their target audience. Every single action that people take online, almost, is tracked as a data point that we can use to inform our targeting. And thats whether theyve taken a certain amount of time dwelling on a page, whether theyve expressed an interest in something, joined a group, almost purchased something but not purchased something, purchased something. Every single one of these is a signal. So how narrowly can you focus your target . You will be blown away by how specific we can be in terms of targeting individual people. We could, for example, within newcastle under lyme, choose a nurse whos recently qualified, within a certain income bracket, whos interested in fitness and wellness, and then under behaviours, has recently returned from travel within the last one or two weeks. Thats how specific we can get. What, then, is the appeal of social media to political campaigns . First, its very quick. Its also a cheap medium. You can pay sometimes as little as £100 to reach thousands of swing voters. The other reason, of course, is that youre allowed to advertise. British Political Parties are not allowed to advertise on tv or on radio, unlike their counterparts in america. This is the age of data. All around us is an infinite swirl of personal information, which you and i add to every time we browse, swipe, like or click. And, farfrom the madding crowd, political marketers, mavericks and miscreants are plundering those innocent digital ticks to capture our attention and persuade us to give them a hearing and a vote. Recent plebiscites show campaigners tend to save most of their digital budgets for the climax ofa campaign. The best, and the worst, is yet to come. Amol rajan, bbc news. Interesting, isnt it . Stay with me on bbc news, ill be back with the Business Briefing in just a few moments. Stay with us. Ill see you soon. Hello there. Its been a pretty unsettled start to november.
